It gives me great joy to connect with communities, nonprofits, and congregations around the U.S. and in my state of Michigan. I appreciate the many expressions of community that are taking place in these contexts, and it is a gift to be present and learn what others are doing.

I speak and lead workshops at retreats and conferences, and I serve frequently as a guest speaker for congregations. Alongside these, I also welcome the opportunity to have a conversation with your community over Zoom.

I am passionate to build connections between rich ideas, community, and movements of inclusion in our local contexts. I am particularly interested in topics that focus upon

— Themes of community formation, kinship, and chosen family
— Disability culture, access, inclusion, and health equity
— Young adult community, spiritual development, and mentorship
— Demographic changes in the religious landscape of the U.S.
(see more about my involvement with Michigan Nones and Dones)
— Interfaith dialogue

You may email me at revannarbor@gmail.com to inquire about speaking opportunities.
